Obsolete information, removed from the main page on 17-09-01.
Rather than showing an "under construction" page, I decided it was better to re-activate the old pages until I'm ready with the v3 rewrite of ANN's scripts. Meanwhile, posting has been de-activated, and I'm busy learning, and working with, SQL, PHP4, HTML4 and CSS2 to update ANN to 2002 web standards. Obviously, my plan to get this working within a few days was overly ambitious, but I'm doing as much as time permits, and hope to present a barebones system within the next few days. Of course any kinds of comments, requests or suggestions are welcome.

ANN v3 rewrite : Comment 6 of 19 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Graham on 10-Sep-2001 22:00 GMT | In reply to Comment 5 (Mike): Agreed.
However, a permanent login would be nice. But it ain't a few days programming to write an entire news site.
I know MySQL, Perl, HTML very well, and I will have to do it someday for one of my personal sites. However, MySQL is way better than the current file based system for ANN, which must be a mess to manage.
Most important thing - get the datatypes right (SQL tables, etc), and the rest flows out quickly. Get it wrong, spend a lifetime fixing it. |
